Supreme Lord of Towers

Ye Chen now had sixty Seas of Qi established within his dantian.

So, he only needed to establish thirty more Seas of Qi to reach the True Qi Realm Tenth Layer Perfection in his cultivation.

By then, the number of his Seas of Qi would be nine times that of an ordinary cultivator, reaching the limit possible in this world.

If Ye Chen still wanted to establish more Seas of Qi, he would violate the rules of this world, inviting a Celestial Tribulation that would utterly obliterate him.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Ye Chen would never take such a risk.

”I just need to obtain two Tier Two demon beast beast cores to raise my cultivation to the True Qi Realm Tenth Layer. By then, I can compress the True Qi within my body at any time, turning it into Gang Qi.” A gleam of determination shot out from Ye Chen’s eyes.

For a True Qi Realm cultivator to compress and refine their True Qi into Gang Qi, two conditions must be met.

The first condition is reaching the True Qi Realm Tenth Layer Perfection in cultivation.

The second condition is having mastered a Martial Art to the Perfection Realm.

Ye Chen, many years ago, had already achieved perfection in all the Ye Family’s Yellow Level Lower Grade Martial Arts.

Therefore, once his cultivation stepped into the True Qi Realm Tenth Layer, he could start transforming the True Qi within his body into Gang Qi.

However, the True Qi within Ye Chen’s body was so abundant, nine times that of an ordinary cultivator.

This also meant that transforming his True Qi into Gang Qi would be far more challenging than for ordinary cultivators.

Even Ye Chen himself did not know how much time it would take to convert all of his True Qi into Gang Qi, thereby entering the Gang Qi Realm and becoming a Qi Dao Master.

”I think it’s impossible to breakthrough to the Gang Qi Realm within a month, but as long as I cultivate the Human Emperor Body to the Dragon Elephant Realm, I have absolute confidence to kill Duanmu Jie.” Ye Chen said with unrivaled confidence.

Whoosh.

The next moment, his figure flickered, leaving behind an afterimage as he transformed into a humanoid fierce beast speeding through the depths of the Ancient Forest.

Not long after Ye Chen left, several demon beasts were attracted by the scent of blood exuded by the Purple Giant Ape and began vying for its flesh.

For Tier One demon beasts, the flesh of a Tier Two demon beast is a powerful tonic that can rapidly enhance their strength.

Soon enough, the corpse of the Purple Giant Ape was picked clean by the demon beasts.

Even if someone were to arrive at this spot, they wouldn’t know that the Purple Giant Ape had been slain by Ye Chen.

”The Tier Two demon beasts here aren’t as numerous as I imagined! It seems I was just lucky to encounter the Purple Giant Ape so quickly.” After three hours, Ye Chen had ventured several dozen miles into the back mountain, yet he still hadn’t found a second Tier Two demon beast.

In contrast, Tier One demon beasts were everywhere in this place, but Ye Chen couldn’t be bothered to deal with them.

”Master, someone is ahead,” at this moment, the Tower Spirit couldn’t help but alert Ye Chen.

Not far, in a valley about two or three miles from Ye Chen, a group of Celestial Flame Academy students were hunting a Tier Two demon beast.

Though the Tier Two demon beast was strong, it was still outnumbered, eventually falling to the students’ attacks.

”These students are training in the back mountain, let’s avoid them.” Ye Chen said with a calm expression.

He didn’t want others to know about his hunting of Tier Two demon beasts in the back mountain.

Otherwise, someone might intentionally interfere with him.

So, he preferred taking a detour to avoid encountering other students.

”The number of Tier Two demon beasts in the back mountain is truly dwindling, it seems we must venture into the Canglan Mountain Range to encounter more.” At this moment, one student remarked.

”Demon beasts have intelligence too. Over the years, too many Tier Two demon beasts have perished in the back mountain, so even the slightly smarter Tier Two demon beasts dare not enter the back mountain casually, hence their dwindling numbers.” Another student explained.

”I see, no wonder there are so few Tier Two demon beasts here. It seems I need to make a trip into the Canglan Mountain Range,” Ye Chen suddenly realized after hearing the conversation.

Whoosh.

Quickly, he sped towards the Canglan Mountain Range.

The Canglan Mountain Range borders the back mountain of the War King Hall.

The demon beasts in the back mountain primarily come from the Canglan Mountain Range.

Therefore, the demon beasts here were noticeably more numerous than in the back mountain.

Ye Chen had just entered the Canglan Mountain Range not long ago when he encountered another Tier Two demon beast.

However, this Tier Two demon beast was even weaker than the Purple Giant Ape and was quickly slain by Ye Chen.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen had been in the Canglan Mountain Range for four days.

During these four days, Ye Chen encountered over a dozen Tier Two demon beasts.

However, a few of the Tier Two demon beasts were so powerful that even Ye Chen could not confidently take them down.

So, he simply gave up on these few Tier Two Demon Beasts.

Even so, Ye Chen still managed to hunt nine Tier Two Demon Beasts, gaining a total of 280 points of Evolutionary Power.

In other words, he only needed to hunt one more Tier Two Demon Beast to achieve his goal.

Whoosh.

At this moment, Ye Chen’s figure, like a Spiritual Ape, swiftly traversed through a secluded canyon.

He felt quite good about this.

Because he only needed to hunt one more Tier Two Demon Beast to collect 300 points of Evolutionary Power, which would further enhance his Divine Soul Talent.

”Master, be careful.” Just then, the Tower Spirit’s expression suddenly changed drastically, and it shouted at Ye Chen.

Whoosh.

From a hidden corner deep within the canyon, a shadow suddenly shot towards Ye Chen like lightning.

The aura emitted by this figure was terrifying, and even Ye Chen felt a significant threat.

”Damn it! How did I get so unlucky? I actually encountered a Tier Two Demon Beast that rivals a Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm expert.” Ye Chen’s face turned extremely gloomy, and he turned to flee out of the canyon.

In the past few days, he had encountered some Tier Two Demon Beasts with strength not inferior to his current self.

However, these Tier Two Demon Beasts were not enough to threaten his life.

If Ye Chen went all out, he might even counter-kill them, but he didn’t want to take such a risk.

But now, the Tier Two Demon Beast he encountered was far more terrifying than the others, making Ye Chen even suspect it was stronger than some Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm experts.

This level of existence was not something Ye Chen could contend with.

All he could do was escape quickly.

”It’s actually an Emperor Cyan Wind Leopard, it’s useless, master, its speed is just too fast, you won’t be able to escape.” The Tower Spirit spoke with extreme gravity.

The Emperor Cyan Wind Leopard is an extremely powerful Demon Beast, with bloodlines comparable to a human Profound Level bloodline.

Even in the Canglan Mountain Range, their numbers are as rare as phoenix feathers.

However, Ye Chen happened to encounter one.

It could only be said that his luck was terrible.

Fortunately, this Emperor Cyan Wind Leopard was still in its growth phase, far from reaching its peak strength.

Otherwise, even a Qi Dao Grandmaster of the Celestial Spirit Realm might not be its match.

Even so, the strength of this Emperor Cyan Wind Leopard surpassed that of ordinary Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm experts.

With Ye Chen’s current strength, it was absolutely impossible to defeat it.

Moreover, the speed of the Emperor Cyan Wind Leopard is notoriously fast, so even if Ye Chen had cultivated the First Level of Foundation Establishment Realm in the Human Emperor Body, it was far from enough in comparison.

Therefore, Ye Chen’s attempt to evade its pursuit was almost impossible.

”I just need to kill one more Tier Two Demon Beast to complete the task, why did this beast have to appear! Since escaping is useless, then there’s only one battle. I’m also curious to see just how much difference there is between me and a Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm expert.” A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Ye Chen’s mouth, and he suddenly stopped his movement, with an overwhelming battle intent surging throughout his body.

Clang.

The next moment, a melodious sword’s hum echoed throughout the canyon, like a dragon’s roar.

In Ye Chen’s right hand, a razor-sharp Golden Battle Sword appeared instantly, the very low-grade Spiritual Artifact he had won in the Newcomer’s Tournament.

A low-grade Spiritual Artifact is much sharper than a normal sharp weapon, capable of cutting through the flesh of a Tier Two Demon Beast, undoubtedly boosting Ye Chen’s combat power greatly.

Roar.

In a split second, the Emperor Cyan Wind Leopard closed the distance with Ye Chen to within a few dozen feet.

It looked akin to a leopard but was covered in dark cyan scales, its blood-red eyes flashing with terrifying fierceness, making one’s soul shiver involuntarily.

Although it stood only about three yards tall, its aura was far more terrifying than the Purple Giant Ape Ye Chen had previously killed; they weren’t even on the same level.

”It’s coming.” Ye Chen’s pupils suddenly constricted, almost instinctively pushing the power of the Human Emperor Body and the Ancient Golden Elephant Technique to the limit.

At that moment, his muscles bulged, his skin emitting a faint golden divine light, as if cast from Divine Gold, filled with infinite explosive power.

Simultaneously, a colossal ancient golden elephant appeared behind him, rising several dozen yards high, exuding an immensely imposing presence.

”It’s not enough, the power of six hundred tigers is still insufficient to contend with this Demon Beast, Thunderstorm Swordsmanship, activate.” With a flicker of his mind, Ye Chen activated the Thunderstorm Swordsmanship.

Crackle.

In the next instant, purple lightning burst forth from within him, entwining around the golden battle sword in his hand, exuding a world-shattering aura as he swung fiercely at the Emperor Cyan Wind Leopard.
